@Daoyu15 @jhas5 @Fynnderella1 Not sure what your point is ragrding hACE2 mice infection.

Have you read all the other hACE2 mouse model papers that show SC2 infection.

I have!

@Ticklicker56 @Biorealism Yes, we thoroughy researched this issue some time ago.

Difficult to prove anything, but certainly raises suspicions.
@Ticklicker56 @Biorealism Interestingly, the E protein and nsp7 of ZC45 are 100% identical to those of SARS-COV-2.

Even Holmes (Wu et al., 2020) listed ZC45 as closest in Feb 2020 until the RaTG13 full genome was published in March

nature.com/articles/s4158…
@Ticklicker56 @Biorealism Phylogenetic trees and analysis from the early days

nature.com/articles/s4158…

What's unusual is that Wu & Holmes (2020) did NOT inlcude the RdRp of SC2 in the analysis

Holmes definitely knew of the RdRp of RaTG13 (4991) and RaTG13's sequence since 2018

1. "For me with this data a lab origin is now more than likely" says @dr_louwen

Referring to ON876210 ( i think ;)



From authors of this paper (Submitted March 2020)

An Infectious cDNA Clone of SARS-CoV-2



h/t @Rebecca21951651 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/ON8762…
ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
2. From 2020 Paper

“icSars_CoV_2 retained the engineered molecular markers & did not acquire other mutations”.

@dr_louwen considers that:

1. This increases the validity of the genetic finding

2. This isolate is highly similar to the wild type isolate 2019-nCoV/USA_WA1/2020
@dr_louwen 3. Point 2 above refers to "ON876210"

(My mistake in Tweet 1)
